READINGS

The opportunity to read for an audience is a special thrill...and an equally special fear. Unlike writing where we can rewrite the piece over and over again, reading it aloud changes everything. Live, it's no longer just about our mastery of words. Few of us have professional training in presentation but we do our best to deliver the stories the way we imagine them in our heads.
